Had some issue with engine oil pressure for S60, contacted the shop and Shawn/Blake helped to squeeze in the check the same day, found the cause and timely informed me about the findings. Moreover, the team, especially Shawn, also went extra miles to help arranging tow service to transport the vehicle to dealer for repair. Really appreciate their responsiveness and assistance!

COVID's made everything different. Even with reduced usage of a car, there are things to take care of and Holland, as always, were complete pros. This year's annual service on my car was done with strong considerations for limiting personal contact. I was able to set up my appointment by phone and dropped and picked up the car in a "touch-less" fashion. I was kept up-to-date with what was going on with my appointment and would not hesitate to use Holland again. I miss getting to say "hi" to everyone at the shop, but their use of email and texting is a welcome addition to keeping in the loop on the progress of getting my car serviced.

Excellent shop. Staff were friendly and flexible, communication was superb, and they did not try to upsell me on services unlike some other local garages I have been to. We will definitely be back with our other vehicles. Services: Oil change, Vehicle Inspection, Brake service & repair

I've been taking my BMW M6 and Mercedes G63 to these guys since I moved to the bay 4 years ago and have to say that they are phenomenal. Their work is impeccable and the customer service is world class! I go to the San Carlos location where Shawn takes great care of me. I trust them 100% with everything and only go to the dealership under VERY RARE circumstances.
